I read through some of the Twitter comments (I know, dumb of me to do), and it appears the UCF fans are saying UCF fan things when it comes to USF of course.

At least there was one USF person that commented about the IPF and pending OCS being factors. I don't really love the B12 and think it is a P5.5 conference at best, but I guess it is a perceived move up for AAC teams by most of the college sports world. Whatever... I will watch and cheer on the Bulls no matter the conference, but I think we all just want to know about a B12 invite (one way or the other) sooner than later. 

Honestly with OK and Texas going to SEC, there is huge tier between the SEC,ACC, and Big 10 before you get to Pac12/Big12. I hope we get in but I think the big 3 will separate themselves further from the pack and get more money.

Maybe money for now yes, but in terms of competition, the ACC is garbage right now (Pitt beat Wake for the title). If this is the current strength of the conference I would put it more like

SEC

BIG10

BIG12 even without OU & UT

ACC

PAC12

Did anyone listen to discover what this "credible" source is?

This thread would be a mere shadow of itself if sources were vetted before dozens of pages of comments.

I see you're both men of culture when it comes to expansion.

True.  And 24 hour cable news stations would only have 5 minutes of content each day.

And don't even get me started about Twitter being a vast wasteland ...

This should help a little for USF

Maybe we can scoop up Penny Hardaway for cheap after he gets the boot?

USF needs to win, specially in football. That’s the only thing that will help USF move up.

With the new TV contracts coming soon by BigTen, PAC and Big12. You will see a wide gap created.

It will be SEC and Big Ten

with

Pac, ACC and Big 12 well below the top 2.

PAC has limited market out west, Big12 losing its two most valuable parts and ACC is tied to a bad contract freezing them until 2036

Winning? No doubt. However, the program needs to properly invest in their fans. 

Their media outreach has improved, football facilities are finally in focus. But, they need to keep sight on getting butts in seats (even when we face uninspiring opponents).
